I have a 2016 ACE 30.1. I recently replaced the tail lights with LED from Amazon (PartSam) here. I followed these instructions from one of the others that had bought them. They are:
"These lights are well made and they are bright and the back up lights are also bright. I used them to replace the tail lights on a 2018 Thor Quantum motor home and they fit perfectly, even the holes were the same. One note: the wires are a different color that the OEM lights so read the color code carefully in order for the lights to work correctly.
So here is the best way to hook them up if your RV has 3 White wires, 2 Black wires, 2 Green wires and 1 Red wire on the RV wires.
On the RV side, twist the Green wires together, the Black wires together and the White wires together.
On the new LED light, twist the Black and Brown wires together. Twist the Yellow and green wires together.
Connect the RV Black wires to the Brown/ Black wires on the lights, the RV Green wires to the Yellow/Green wires, and the White wires to the Lights White wires and the RV red wire to the lights Blue wire.
NOW, both lights will be Low mode running lights and both lights will be High Mode brake lights and turn signals, and the Red to Blue is backup. Hope this helps..."
They seemed to be fine. Then my house batteries died. I thought I had blown a fuse. Anyway, now I have noticed that when I push the brakes my radio comes on. Can anyone tell me why this might be?
Thanks
